I’m feeling a bit better today, and it did make me feel better to paint for just a little while yesterday. I used my old sketchbook (almost used up… yikes) and some degreaser, which actually works really well for thinning oil paint.
It does still smell a bit though, and it does make the paint dry faster.
I finished it and realized that I really do need large canvases. I can only imagine the details I could create with my paints if I just had enough room. I would probably need a lot more paint as well… maybe I should stick with acrylics, but nothing really calls to my soul like oil paints.
I prefer to paint with my fingers, which is something that I definitely did get in trpuble for when I was in school. I does dry your hands out, but I learned a lot time ago that my brain doesn’t care. And plus, lotions exist.
On the witchcraft front, I actually tried to meditate and get into a trance. My thoughts are forever distracting, so usually taking the time to just quiet down is very difficult. But this time I preformed a ritual, added tea, and essiential oils. It was almost perfect. I say almost because I don’t think I really got an answer from Aset.
My whole point was to try and reach her. She really will NOT leave me alone, and has shown up in almost every reading I’ve watched for myself on YouTube. And The High Priestess has always been my tarot card. I have no idea really what she wants from me, but perhaps the reason I am feeling good is because of her.
On unrelated notes, Shane Dawson drops the trailer to his new series today, and I couldn’t possibly be more excited. I have loved that big bear for what feels like my entire life (I did lose a lot of the early years to childhood trauma though, so maybe that’s why), when in reality, I’ve only been watching him for seven years. It is a very long time. I’ve loved Jeffree for almost as long, and met him the last time he went on Warped Tour in 2015 (?) I’m pretty sure it was that year, but I honestly can’t recall. He was sweet, as Jeffree is.
This is the ending of this blog I suppose.
Happy Libra Season,
The Black Mistress of the Night
